A framework to estimate dwell time of BRT systems using fuzzy regression
Journal of Intelligent and Fuzzy Systems(2020)
摘要
This paper presents adjustments and validation of a model for the process of passenger boarding and alighting of BRT (Bus Rapid Transport) and express bus systems. Such models are of fundamental importance for the implementation of strategies to control the operation of those systems, which allow for quality and efficiency gains in the service. First, a generalized disjunctive programming model is presented in order to adapt a bus headway control formulation according to the number of onboard passengers. Later, as a way to improve the model, real data were collected from the boarding/alighting times of passengers in the Trunk line 10 system in the city of Blumenau, Brazil. These data were used in a two-stage fuzzy regression to take into account the uncertainties associated with the dwell time of the passengers. The actual data collected were used in simulations of the enhanced bus headway control system, showing that even in the presence of disturbances, the system can still operate properly without bunching.
